A Democratic political action committee and advocacy group alleged in a complaint to congressional ethics officials that Rep. Rob Bresnahan potentially violated federal law by failing to publicly disclose details of a private helicopter as part of his latest personal financial disclosure report to Congress.

Bresnahan’s legal counsel dismissed the allegation as “incorrect” and a “lie.”

The group, End Citizens United, is asking the independent, nonpartisan Office of Congressional Conduct to “immediately investigate” Bresnahan, a freshman Republican from Pennsylvania, for not expressly listing the helicopter when he filed his public 2024 financial disclosures last week, according to a complaint obtained by NOTUS on Wednesday.
